Venice Model Makes Tree House-Living Seem Entirely Sexy

What is it with the city's beautiful blond women and crawling up in to trees? Interview magazine listens to local resident/model Erin Wasson, founder of skate/surf brand Erin Wasson x RVCA, talk about living in a 900-square-foot tree house in Venice, a residence that also has a skate ramp. "We put in the half-pipe the summer I moved in. There was a small skate shop down the road, and a lot of the boys who worked there would come over and sit around and work on it slowly. One day it was done. Now tons of people from the neighborhood come by. We fire up the grill and everybody hangs out and skates.Then there’s my tree house. It’s got sliding glass windows, it’s fully insulated, and there’s electricity... At night, when I’m standing in my backyard and have the bonfire going, I think, ‘Wow. This is really my own little sanctuary."
